VIB group
Department of Plant Systems Biology

Job description
The fellow will work in the Department of Plant Systems Biology (VIB-Gent University) in a collaborative effort between the groups Functional Genomics and Systems Biology of Yield, headed by Prof. Pierre Hilson and Prof. Dirk Inzé, in the framework of the AGRON-OMICS European Integrated Project.

You will participate to the curation of primary research results published in the scientific literature, focusing on the characterization of plant growth and development processes and emphasizing studies based on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
